Summary
The source of this story could not be found, and it does not appear in reliable books. The ruling leans towards considering it unauthentic, so it must not be attributed to Prophet Musa AS. Supplication itself remains encouraged, as Allah SWT commands His servants to pray and, according to a hadith, supplication can change destiny.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
